Harvey Tool 72125-C4 Square End Mill 1/8 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 72125-C4 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in demanding shop environments. At 1/8 inch in diameter with a 2-flute configuration and a 30-degree helix angle, this tool delivers clean cuts in a range of materials. The amorphous diamond coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction at the cutting edge, extending tool life in abrasive applications. With a 3/8 inch length of cut and a 1/2 inch overall length of 1-1/2 inches, it is suited for detailed work in tight pockets and slots. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this end mill in CNC machining centers and manual mills.

This end mill is used in applications requiring fine detail, narrow slot milling, and precise profiling. The centercutting design allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece, eliminating the need for a pre-drilled starting hole in many setups. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional and climb milling on CNC equipment. It is appropriate for use in production shops, tool rooms, and prototype machining environments where tight tolerances and surface finish quality are priorities.

Key Features

• Amorphous diamond coating for increased hardness and reduced friction in abrasive materials
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 2-flute design improves chip evacuation in slotting and plunge operations
• 30-degree helix angle balances cutting force and surface finish
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit tooling for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 1/8 inch shank diameter end mill holder or collet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the 1/8 inch shank fully into the collet or end mill holder and torque the retention system per the machine manufacturer specifications. Verify tool runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut to avoid premature tool wear or breakage.
